吞下的消息：错误：未捕获（承诺）：[对象未定义]

Question

My login component briefly displays before being removed by an error message about an undefined object in a promise.

Here is the promise definition:

  static init(): Promise<any> {
    KeycloakClientService.auth.loggedIn = false;
    return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
      const keycloakConfig = {
      url: environment.KEYCLOAK_URL,
      realm: environment.KEYCLOAK_REALM,
      clientId: environment.KEYCLOAK_CLIENTID,
      'ssl-required': 'external',
      'public-client': true
      };
      const keycloakAuth: any = new Keycloak(keycloakConfig);

      keycloakAuth.init({onLoad: 'check-sso'})
        .success(() => {
          KeycloakClientService.auth.loggedIn = true;
          KeycloakClientService.auth.authz = keycloakAuth;
          KeycloakClientService.auth.logoutUrl = environment.KEYCLOAK_URL
          + '/realms/' + environment.KEYCLOAK_REALM + '/protocol/openid-connect/logout?redirect_uri='
          + document.baseURI;
          console.log('=======>> The keycloak client has been initiated successfully');
          resolve('Succeeded in initiating the keycloak client');
        })
        .error(() => {
          reject('Failed to initiate the keycloak client');
        });
    });
  }

It is called by:

KeycloakClientService.init()
  .then(
    () => {
      console.log('The keycloak client has been initialized');
    }
  )
  .catch(
    (error) => {
      console.log(error);
      window.location.reload();
    }
  );

The console shows both messages:

The keycloak client has been initiated successfully
The keycloak client has been initialized

I'm using Angular 6.0.4 and tried following this blog

Any way to work around this error so as to keep my login form displayed ?

UPDATE: I tried using an observable instead of a promise but the issue remained the same:

  public init(): Observable<any> {
    KeycloakClientService.auth.loggedIn = false;
    return new Observable((observer) => {
      const keycloakConfig = {
        'url': environment.KEYCLOAK_URL,
        'realm': environment.KEYCLOAK_REALM,
        'clientId': environment.KEYCLOAK_CLIENTID,
        'ssl-required': 'external',
        'public-client': true
      };
      const keycloakAuth: any = new Keycloak(keycloakConfig);

      keycloakAuth.init({ 'onLoad': 'check-sso' })
        .success(() => {
          KeycloakClientService.auth.loggedIn = true;
          KeycloakClientService.auth.authz = keycloakAuth;
          KeycloakClientService.auth.logoutUrl = environment.KEYCLOAK_URL
            + '/realms/' + environment.KEYCLOAK_REALM + '/protocol/openid-connect/logout?redirect_uri='
            + document.baseURI;
          console.log('The keycloak auth has been initialized');
          observer.next('Succeeded in initiating the keycloak client');
          observer.complete();
        })
        .error(() => {
          console.log('The keycloak client could not be initiated');
          observer.error('Failed to initiate the keycloak client');
        });
    });
  }

The whole source code is available on GitHub

UPDATE: Following an answer below, I also tried to use a then() and a catch() keywords but the error remained the exact same:

keycloakAuth.init({ 'onLoad': 'check-sso' })
        .then(() => {
          KeycloakClientService.auth.loggedIn = true;
          KeycloakClientService.auth.authz = keycloakAuth;
          KeycloakClientService.auth.logoutUrl = environment.KEYCLOAK_URL
            + '/realms/' + environment.KEYCLOAK_REALM + '/protocol/openid-connect/logout?redirect_uri='
            + document.baseURI;
          console.log('The keycloak auth has been initialized');
          observer.next('Succeeded in initiating the keycloak client');
          observer.complete();
        })
        .catch(() => {
          console.log('The keycloak client could not be initiated');
          observer.error('Failed to initiate the keycloak client');
        });

This is a wild guess, but maybe it's a conflict with Angular's zones. Since this is a security library it might not like that Angular has replaced core functions with proxies. For example, NgZone modifies window.setTimeout and the HTTP methods.

So you could try running this code outside of zones. The only problem here is that you're using a static function, and will have to make this an injectable service so that you can access NgZone

@Injectable()
export class KeycloakClientService {
    public constructor(private zone: NgZone) {
    }

    public init(): Promise<any> {
        KeycloakClientService.auth.loggedIn = false;
        return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
            this.zone.runOutsideAngular(() => {
                const keycloakConfig = {
                     url: environment.KEYCLOAK_URL,
                     realm: environment.KEYCLOAK_REALM,
                     clientId: environment.KEYCLOAK_CLIENTID,
                     'ssl-required': 'external',
                     'public-client': true
                };

                const keycloakAuth: any = new Keycloak(keycloakConfig);

                keycloakAuth.init({onLoad: 'check-sso'})
                    .success(() => {
                        KeycloakClientService.auth.loggedIn = true;
                        KeycloakClientService.auth.authz = keycloakAuth;
                        KeycloakClientService.auth.logoutUrl = environment.KEYCLOAK_URL
                            + '/realms/' + environment.KEYCLOAK_REALM + '/protocol/openid-connect/logout?redirect_uri='
                            + document.baseURI;
                        console.log('=======>> The keycloak client has been initiated successfully');
                        resolve('Succeeded in initiating the keycloak client');
                    })
                    .error(() => {
                        reject('Failed to initiate the keycloak client');
                    });
            });
        }
    }
}

The change here is to use zone.runOutsideAngular

If you remove the success block, where do you run your logic within success ?

I read some of their source code, I think this is why success causes the problem:

Within keycloak.js , there is a function createNativePromise() :

function createNativePromise() {
var p = {
    setSuccess: function(result) {
        p.success = true;
        p.resolve(result);
    },

    setError: function(result) {
        p.success = false;
        p.reject(result);
    }
};
p.promise = new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
    p.resolve = resolve;
    p.reject = reject;
});
p.promise.success = function(callback) {
    p.promise.then(callback);
    return p.promise;
}
p.promise.error = function(callback) {
    p.promise.catch(callback);
    return p.promise;
}
return p;
}

And it's used this way(simplified code):

function refreshToken() {
    var promise = createNativePromise();
    ...
    if (refreshTokenFailed) {
        promise.setError(true);
    }
    ...

    return promise.promise;
}

The problem is, promise.setError() calls promise.reject(result) , so the promise is rejected, it's expecting a catch .

But within promise.success , there is a promise.promise.then(callback); , and nobody is catching this promise.

This is why you get the Uncaught (in promise): [object Undefined] , and in my case, i always get Uncaught (in promise): true .

Solution:

Notice that promise.promise is a real Promise , so we can use then and catch instead of success and error .

The drawback is, the typescript type will be wrong.

We have observed a similar error about the promise object undefined. The situation was our local application was working fine with the local keycloak standalone server but faced this error when the local application trying to connect with a keycloak server hosted on the ABC server (ABC is used as a reference here to give any arbitrary name).

This issue was resolved when we hosted the application and the keycloak server both on the ABC server.

It looks like there are some time sync issues in different machines due to which the promise object is not returned.
